ALL RIGHT is good. It’s easy listening but fun, cool and not boring at the same time.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

Songs are so short :-/

Not that that's terrible, just surprising.

[Gustavopc]

BRAIN is ao short I'm getting too puzzled by its title and now length

ALL RIGHT is also by Kenji yey <4

[kaled kalil]

I don't think they are that short. Some of my favorite songs since WOML are pretty short anyway: Wicked Girls 2:41 / Like it 2:46 / MONEY IN MY BAG 2:35, and they doesn't feel that short.

As long as we don't get songs like Cupcake or Let's show tonight, I'm fine with that. Love them, they are waaay too short.

[Diva_br]

Wait... and the Jessie J's composition?

EDIT:

According to YesAsia:

Koda Kumi is releasing two albums in 2018. The first to arrive is And, which gets you in a party mood with the lead song Party and the digital single Lit. The album also features the ballad Never Enough and the bluesy R&B number Got Me Going created by British singer-songwriter Jessie J.

[Xianghua]

Kuu telling me "everything's gonna be all right" is what I need right now

[kaled kalil]

@Diva_br Yes, as I said these are some of the credits. Tower Records usually skip a couple of them, much like Party not having the composers

[Diva_br]

^thank you for your answer xD I just readed the credits, my bad.


The last songs could be a happy surprise, I was searching for songs of all the composers and Kazunori worked with Home Made Kazoku, AI and PUSHIM and Nybaeck with MINMI and lecca

[Corvina]

I'm still amazed, how good Kenji is at writing pop songs.

[Gustavopc]

One week till the album is among us, I can't wait to listen to the whole thing. Hope they put it up on Spotify fast like they did with W FACE

Totally agree and it's kind of J-Pop I like, not cheesy stuff like Lick me, SUPERSTAR, etc. I love everything he composed for Koda so far.

They're also goimg to air the PARTY PV.

Is this music station / fair type of show? If yes, then I wish they invited her to perform instead of just airing the PV.

[mi|kshake]

Yeah, the track lengths seem kind of short to me too although I'm not surprised. I just like a few 5 minute-rs in there!

Hoping I prefer this album to Inside/Outside.

[kaled kalil]

They updated the page with the rest of the credits, and also preview of all the songs from the album. Pretty long previews tho, 45 seconds for each song!

[KuuXAyu-fan]

I hate being a debbie downer but so far this is sounding like her worst studio album.
PARTY is okay but doesn't compare to Like It, Show Me Your Holla, or even Ultraviolet song-wise. The rest of the album sounds weak from the previews. Hope I like it better in full.

[Zeke.]

Ok, ALL RIGHT is the only listenable track for me. The rest of the previews are just terrible. Especially WHO.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

^ I haven't listened to anything past Party, but in terms of Kuu we generally have the same taste it seems lol.

So now I'm worried :-(

[Gustavopc]

The album sounds much more western-ish than I expected, HUSH could be there so easily... From the previews I only dislike SWEETEST TABOO, and my fav is WHO
